After watching the basketball world cup (fiba should really change the tournament to a "world cup"), bball would be more interesting as a universal game that combines the best international and NBA rules. Here's a partial list for the universal game off the top of my head: 1. NBA 24 second shot rule 2. International time outs 3. NBA 3 point line
do you want the NBA to adopt the international rules or do you want the NBA rules in the international game ? One of the broadcast commentators on the tv said the NBA wasn't gonna be adapting the international rules anytime soon.
In a sense both. I want to see a universal game that combines the best NBA and international rules so clubs and national teams regardless of location play the same game like in soccer.
The NBA has talked about using the international lane. I wouldn't be surprised to see the 3pt line moved back in the international game. It just is too easy for the good players to make for most teams.
